Glyptothorax telchitta (Hamilton 1822) Pimelodus telchitta Hamilton 1822: 185, 378. Type locality: Hooghly River at Kalna, 23°13’30.0”N, 88°22’39.0”E. Neotype: UMMZ 244946. Neotype designated by Ng (2005). Distribution: Ganges drainage, India (Ng, 2005a). Remarks: Has been reported from the Brahmaputra drainage in India (Mamnur Rashid et al., 1997) and also from the Ganges drainage in Bangladesh and Nepal (Lipton, 1985; Datta Munshi & Srivastava, 1988 (in part); Talwar & Jhingran, 1991 (in part); Sen, 1995 (in part); Jayaram, 1999 (in part); Menon, 1999 (in part)). It is uncertain whether these reports are based on G. telchitta or G. botius. Ng (2005a) only examined specimens from the Hooghly River, India. All reports of this species from the Indus drainage are referable to G. sufii.
